Funny moments

Mmmm I was playing Fallout 3, I emerged from a subway and was confronted immediately with three arrogant and derisive Talon Mercenaries who informed me that I'd angered the wrong people and was now due a terminal ass-whooping. I was talking to this guy, but I was looking over his shoulder at the super-mutant hulking stock-still behind him. I desperately wanted a conversation topic along the lines of "He's not with -you- though... Right?"

As soon as the dialogue ended the Super mutant clobbered the overconfident prick over the head, causing him and one of his buddies to run terrified into a nearby ruin where more mutants were waiting (leaving me all alone with nameless mercenary #3). Poor fellow, 3 vs 1 might have been a challenge for me that early on, but 1 v 1? I didn't need VATS for that...

In Cod4 hardcore mode there was this dude spouting inane bullshit. While I was sniping he comes into the room, gets on the turret, and starts spraying. This completely gives away our position. I told him he was gonna get sniped and when he said he didn't care I shot him in the face with my sniper rifle.

Then I laughed my ass off.

Into the mic.

I just finished a game of Left 4 Dead. Was the sole survivor in the team with 1 life, chased by the horde. I hid in a room, spammed push and killed very damn zombie. Ran through the tunnels with more zombies in hot pursuit, then found the closet with the rest of the team and proceeded into making mincemeat out of them. We made it to almost the end when we were zombie spammed and killed. But I had my 5 minutes of fame as a 1 man army.

Me and my brother in our two-man Rock Band band. We had been playing on Medium for a while, (Well, I played Medium, he played Easy.) So we thought we shoudl gird our lions and move up another difficulty.
Let's just say that I remember failing Monsoon. Pretty badly. I was Guitar, and I had been playing Guitar Hero for a hell long time.

Halo 3, territories on Narrows. My entire team had gathered by the first territory ready to launch an offensive, when suddenly this noob throws a power drain and a frag and takes us all out.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA, that post just made my day, your awesome

Barney's line in Half Life 2:

"Great job pulling that switch. I see that MIT education just pays for itself".

It makes me laugh every time.

Episode 2 has some really great moments from minor characters, like Griggs and Sheckley in the antlion mines:

Griggs: Sheckley! We got antlions!!!
Sheckley: ...You idiot. That's Gordon Freeman.

G: OK Freeman...Be Adequate!
S: What the hell does that mean?
G: I dunno...it sounds like something the Vorts would say.

Or the guy giving a class on using Combine pulse rifles:

Teacher: So, have you used an AR-2 before?
Moron: AR-2...no...now, AR-3, sure, plenty of times.
T: ...There's no such thing as an AR-3.
M: See, back in the city, where I used to work, the place was lousy with AR-3's.
T: No it wasn't.
M: Yes it was!
T: No it was-. You know what the secondary fire on the AR-2 does? It kills hunters. How did you cityfolk kill hunters?
M: Well we sure as hell didn't use guns! We used to wrestle hunters to the ground with our bare hands! I used to kill 10, 20 a day, just usin' my fists!
T: So when you're out in the field...you're gonna be punching hunters?
M: The field? I'm not goin' out in the field! I'm a radio operator!

Thread bump, and two more stories, both Saint's Row 2.

#1: I was doing the ambulance missions in my modified purple nitro-packing ambulance, and I think I must have scared someone on my way to the accident scene, as when I got there some old lady just flipped out and ran over two of the victims, thus making the total number of savable people less than the number I needed to save in order to proceed to the next level. Annoying, yet funny to hear this old woman scream and plow straight through an accident scene.

#2: My younger brother was watching me as I entered this race. Now, some races allow you to use your car, while others restrict you to a specific car. This race let me use my modified Peacekeeper (I've modded almost every car in my garage) and I was up against some nippy little sports cars. My brother thought I was insane to attempt it. Well, after being in last for a few checkpoints, I got to a sharp corner where all 3 opponents had bunched together. I hit the nitro and plowed right into them. Two exploded, and the explosion must have killed the third driver or something, because when I looked back the car door was open, and the car was empty.

Needless to say I won that race.

Dropping a grenade at my own feet in GTA 4. Oops doesn't quite cut it in that situation.
